Biography
Mehdi Belhoucine was born in 1991 in France and was the brother of Mohamed Belhoucine. The two of them, of Algerian descent, joined the Buttes-Chaumont Network of al-Qaeda in France and became associated with Said Kouachi, Cherif Kouachi, Hayat Boumeddiene, and Amedy Coulibaly. Belhoucine and Boumeddiene both bought tickets to Turkey in January 2015, and the two of them fled the country of France while the Kouachi brothers and Amedy Coulibaly were killed in terrorist attacks. Belhoucine crossed the Syrian border with Boumeddiene and headed to join the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, to which Boumeddine's late husband Coulibaly had declared allegiance.
